Homemade Pancakes Cooked With Love – And Drugs

Tammy Eppley

WESTERVILLE, O.H.– Police say a woman running a day-care center from her Ohio home drugged some of the children she had been caring for.

Authorities charged Tammy Eppley, 37, with six counts of child endangerment after she allegedly crushed medications designed to cause drowsiness and added them to the pancakes she fed to the kids, according to reports.

Eppley runs Caterpillar Clubhouse, located in Westerville, Ohio.  She cares for six children that range in age from 2 to 5 years. One of the kids is hers, sources say.

Eppley described the incident as “mortifying.”

“I’m a very private person, and I’m very protective of my children and the children in my care,” she reportedly said.

Authorities said they believed Eppley might have added substances such as Benadryl and melatonin into the pancake mix to cause the children to go to sleep, according to records.

Sources say the children did not become ill or injured after ingesting the drugs.

One of Eppley’s former friends contacted Child Protective Services after she said she’d received text messages from Eppley that jokingly said she had sedated the kids, reports say.

Eppley, however, denied this and said she had only been texting the friend to vent, sources say.

Reports say the day-care owner had given the kids medications in the past with parental permission.

Eppley will appear in court Friday, July 12.

 

Depends On Your Idea Of A “Good Time”

Shaun Williams

Shaun Williams

BUNNELL, F.L.– A Florida man told authorities he had been beaten, robbed, forced to strip naked and abandoned during a first date with a woman.

Officers discovered Shaun Paul Williams, 34, walking nude and bloodied down the road near a cow pasture in Bunnell, Fla. Williams said the woman’s name had been “Tree,” sources say.

Williams and Tree met the beginning of June and finally set up a date.  Tree had two men in the car with her when she arrived to pick Williams up.  Tree told Williams one of them was her brother and that she would drop the two men off at her brother’s home, according to police reports.

While his sister was driving, the brother asked Tree to drop him off at a cow pasture. Williams left the vehicle, as well, to urinate.  Williams said someone then struck him across the head with a hard, metal object and demanded him to hand over all his money and clothing, sources say.

Williams saw a semi-automatic pistol pointed at his face when he looked up.  He removed his clothes and gave the men $200, his driver’s license, a cell phone, a tank top, a pair of shorts and shoes. The two men then drove off with Tree. Williams described the men as appearing to be about 30 years old, reports say.

Williams said the assailants had left his cheekbone and jaw fractured. He also told sources he would lose his right eye if he did not receive surgery.

 

I’ll Try Better To Be Worse, Satan, I Promise

PANAMA CITY, F.L.–A convicted felon who owned satanic writings and shrines pleaded guilty to a charge of possessing an illegal gun in Florida.

Edward Victor Williams appeared in court last month for threatening a game warden’s life in February.  However, reports say when police later investigated his Panama City home, they found not only a high-powered deer rifle but also satanic shrines.

Williams’ shrines included offerings of mutilated baby dolls that had an appearance of having been raped, burned and impaled. Authorities decided to hold Williams until a hearing in April after making their discovery, according to sources.

Police arrested Williams once again in April after they found him high on methamphetamine. When they searched his home a second time, they discovered a letter addressed to the devil that apologized for all the good deeds Williams had completed throughout his life. Williams also wrote that he would try to do more evil.  Sources say Williams addressed the letter to “Oh devil, Oh demon, Oh Lucifer.”

“That will be my goal: pure evil,” he reportedly wrote.

Authorities also found a bomb recipe in Williams’ home, according to sources.

A witness at Williams’ trial said the mutilated dolls showed Williams’ unique sense of humor. The witness also reportedly said Williams used the dolls to scare away unwanted visitors.

Williams’ sentencing is currently scheduled to take place Thursday, Oct. 3. He faces up to 10 years in prison for allegedly being a felon in possession of a firearm, reports say.
